A podcast by Revive New England (revivenewengland.org (http://revivenewengland.org) ). Stirring & Equipping the New England Church to Seek & Steward Spiritual Awakening.
In this episode, Greg and Chris unpack the second of the fundamental tenets which make up the "Revival Covenant" (http://www.revivalcovenant.org (http://www.revivalcovenant.org)). Which is, an ongoing commitment to the exercise of “extraordinary prayer” for the inbreaking of God’s Kingdom.

"Teach us to Pray" - Session 7 - Prayer is Standing Between Heaven & Earth
One of the greatest privileges given to human beings is to stand before God on behalf of others. In intercession we stand in the gap between God’s promises and the brokenness of the world. As we pray, we participate with God in bringing his kingdom into reality.

"Teach us to Pray" - Session 6 - Prayer is Listening to God
Every real relationship includes both speaking and listening. Yet many Christians have never learned how to recognize God’s voice in prayer. This session explores how God speaks and how we can grow in attentiveness and discernment as we listen.

"Teach us to Pray" - Session 5 - Prayer Is Talking to God
If prayer is conversation with God, what do we actually say? Rather than praying from the poverty of our own emotions and ideas, Scripture invites us to pray from the riches of God’s Word. In this session we learn how the Bible gives language and direction to our prayers.

"Teach us to Pray" - Session 4 - Prayer Starts With a Who
Because prayer is a relationship, the foundation of prayer is not technique but trust. Many people approach God like a distant boss or a disappointed judge, but Jesus teaches us to come to God as Father. In this session we explore how a secure relationship with God transforms the way we pray.

"Teach us to Pray" - Session 3 - Prayer is Being With God
At its heart, prayer is not primarily about saying the right words. Prayer is about being with God. In this session we explore how prayer begins in God’s presence—learning to slow down, become attentive, and simply be with the One who loves us.

"Teach us to Pray" - Session 2 - Prayer as Apprenticeship
When the disciples watched Jesus, one thing stood out above everything else: his life of prayer. They knew they were meant to follow him and do what he did, but they realized the source of his life and power was his relationship with the Father. So they asked the simple request that launches this series: “Lord, teach us to pray.”

S2 E1 - "The Necessity of Insufficiency"
In this episode, Greg and Chris introduce Season 2(!) of the Forerunners podcast, which will unpack and discuss the series of fundamental commitments which make up the regional initiative that we're calling the "Revival Covenant" (www.revivalcovenant.org (http://www.revivalcovenant.org)). First and foremost, we explore how seeking Lord for revival necessarily begins with an unflinching awareness and confession of our own insufficiency, apart from Him. Our need is precisely the place where the Kingdom of the Heavens comes to us.
